Our Treasurer, Frances, will be hosting our next reading group, talking about critical macrofinance and financialisation. We hope it should be an interesting and thorough discussion suitable to various backgrounds.

The papers we hope to cover, but which are not mandatory to have read beforehand, are:

(Werner, 2015) ‘A lost century in economics; three theories of banking and the conclusive evidence’ (Michell, 2024) ‘Theorising non-bank financial intermediation’ (Kessler, Wilhelm et. al., 2013) ‘Financialization and the Three Utopias of Shadow Banking’ (Gabor, 2020) ‘ Critical macro-finance: A theoretical lens’
